Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I wish I could give Dr. Baker 100 stars, he’s that wonderful. Both of my daughters have seen him since birth and he has been nothing but amazing. He goes out of his way to seamlessly go through the appointment in a way that makes my daughters feel as comfortable as possible. Every time I leave an appointment, I call my husband and tell him about what an amazing appointment it was and how you can just tell he takes great care with his patients, well beyond anyone I’ve ever seen. He was clearly born to do this job. On top of that, he’s excellent at explaining what is to be worried about and what isn’t. If Dr. Baker is not worried, neither am I, and as a mom, that is worth its weight in gold. As if that isn’t enough, as a mom, we are used to everyone forgetting us once the baby is born. Not Dr. Baker. I had a pretty rough c-section with my first daughter and he genuinely asked me how I was doing and shared that he knew how rough it was. He’s just a genuinely good person and doctor.

I have two young boys that have seen Dr. Baker since they were born. He is always friendly and professional. He knows how to relate to the kids so that they feel comfortable and they always leave with a smile.

Both of my children have been blessed by Dr. Baker since the day they were born. He is a wonderful man and really enjoys what he does and truly cares about his patients. He also blows bubbles for each kids visit, which is a plus. My kids both have always looked forward to the bubble.
